Bernie Sanders backs Hawaiian Air flight attendants amid contract talks
HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has thrown his support behind Hawaiian Airlines flight attendants in protracted contract negotiations with the carrier.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Sanders said he stands “in solidarity” with flight attendants.
Hawaiian Airlines "is making record profits while flight attendants struggle to make ends meet,” Sanders wrote. “Workers have waited nearly three years for a bargaining agreement. This is unacceptable.”

The flight attendants claim their pay has fallen in comparison with the rest of the industry while the cost of living and medical expenses continue to rise.
